UNSPSC 50423911: Dried tindoori gourds

The variety of gourds known as tindoori gourds that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50423911 Dried tindoori gourds is a Commodity code with no recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code reflect general food service procurement — school nutrition programs, correctional facility dining, and child care meal services — that do not actually involve dried tindoori gourds or any tindoori-specific products. The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in how opportunities were tagged to the code or that the code descriptor does not reflect actual state and local buying patterns.

Recent opportunities under this code designation span school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia, Rockwood R-VI and Muscogee County in Missouri and Georgia, Savannah-Chatham and Douglas County in Georgia), state departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Illinois, Georgia), and municipal bodies (City of Edinburg, Texas). Representative solicitations include Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 IFB (due April 27, 2026) covering 76+ grocery line items for weekly delivery to schools; the Texas Department of Criminal Justice cafeteria food products IFB through the Texas Comptroller (extended to May 4, 2026) encompassing 382 line items including proteins, dairy, grains, and produce across five geographic areas; and the Oregon Department of Corrections pinto bean ITB (S2910000016233, due March 20, 2026) for 127,500 pounds. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, Illinois, and Virginia. No bidders should pursue opportunities under this code based on tindoori gourd specifications — the tagged opportunities are broad food-service buys where dried legumes and fresh produce appear as minor line items, not primary commodities.
